Breniac login infrastructure

Breniac was the VSC’s Tier-1 cluster hosted by KU Leuven, and it was decomissioned in December 2022. This page is obsolete, and we keep it only for the future reference.

Direct login using SSH is possible to all login infrastructure.

Note

Only users involced in an active Tier-1 project have access to the infrastructure.

Two types of login nodes are available:

• a classic login node, i.e., SSH access.

  • login1-tier1.hpc.kuleuven.be

  • login2-tier1.hpc.kuleuven.be

• a login node that provides a desktop environment that can be used for, e.g., visualization. The NX login node will start a session on a login node that has a GPU, i.e., login2-tier1.hpc.kuleuven.be.
